Intermediate tricks #1

So, now that you have learned all the beginner tricks, it's time to learn some tricks to do with bearing yoyos.

1. Barrel Rolls- Start with a front mount, which means pull the string over your finger and into the groove and up. Then take the front string and pull it over your yoyo hand's index finger. Then push the front string under. Do this as many times as you want. To dismount, take the string off your finger and out of the groove. Pull the yoyo up.

2. Brain Twister- Start with a front mount, and then pull your yoyo finger against the string, pulling the string towards you. Flip it into one or more repetitions, and then flip it off into a loop the loop if you like.

3. Hop the Fence- Throw a sleeper. Then pull it up, but don't catch it. Flip it over your hand. Do this as many times as you want, and then pull it up and catch it.

4. Three Leaf Clover- Throw a loop the loop upward. Then when it comes back do a regular loop the loop. When that one comes back, do a very low loop, and then catch it.

5. Trapeze- This is the basis of all string tricks. Throw a breakaway. Then flip it over your non-yoyo hand's index finger and onto the string. To dismount, toss your hands up and slightly away from each other, causing the yoyo to come off the string and into your hand.

6. Split the Atom- Throw a sleeper. Then, pull the string over your yoyo hand index finger, and flip the yoyo over your non-yoyo hand's index finger onto the string. You are now in a split bottom mount. Then push the front string down. Then push the front string down again with your other index finger. Do this as many times as you want, and then flip the yoyo off the string. Pull it up to end the trick.

7. Mach 5- Do a split bottom mount. Then push the string forward with your yoyo hand's index finger like you were going to do a split the atom, but do it again. Now rotate your hands. It will look like the yoyo is floating on the strings. To dismount, straighten your hands out. You will be in a front mount. Dismount and pull up the yoyo.
